By Debi Lantzer @debiL1611

The last time I went to the movies with my 7-year old grandson, it was a choice between this and another movie.  We ended up going to the other movie that time, but lucky for us, Sony Picture’s movie, The Star is out on DVD and Blu-Ray and even better, this digital version also includes bonus features and the Devon Franklin Bible Study – definitely a win/win situation for us!

It also includes a dance along, “how-to” crafts video and much more! The Star has been available on digital since February 6 and on Blu-Ray + DVD + Digital since February 20!

From the studio that brought you MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN & CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS comes the timeless tale about faith, friendship, and the importance of believing in yourself.

AFFIRM Films and Sony Pictures Animation’s THE STAR arrives for the first time on Digital on February 6 and on Blu-ray + DVD + Digital February 20 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.

Bo and his new friends follow the star and become accidental heroes in the greatest story ever told.
